Hi adam
have you used the spacers on these?I dont really want to go down that rd!just want a good looking set up,have the pressed steel ones on there at the moment.look s@#$....................

[Adam]

Yeh on the front I have 5mm spacer but on the back there is nothing.

You will get away with 10mm spacer but after that you'll be running out of thread.

There is no problem about the back if the front wheel fits then the back will fit too. I had 15 x 7 with 195 tyre on the rear before.

Hi Adam
are you saying that I can fit saxo wheels streight on.
Why did you take the 195 tyres off?
did the car acceleration slow down due to the extra weight?

The 195 tyre was on a different set of alloys that didnt fit on the front and no I didn't see any acceleration loss. I was still able to spin the rear wheels :) .

About the Saxo thing, I don't know, that was Mr Tiny Tim who said it, so I'm sure its correct.

My advice is DONT get anything bigger then 6' wide cause you wont fit it on the front without expansive bolt on spacers.

[jurek]

Are there any other common wheels that will fit?

[Adam]

Yes all 4 x 100 PCD. So old 4 stud VW golf, polo, all 4 stud Honda, Saxo and I'm sure many others. Just ask the guy in the shop and he will tell you.

[jurek]

You are a star !!:bounce: :bounce:

[Adam]

I have 38 but its suppose to be 35.

[jurek]

Hi it said" as yet not every thing

Mid ship the problim is that the UK key board does not have all the accents that we have in our alphabet. How did you work out the language?

[jurek]

Esson my friend I do hope you pay what its worth...lol...:bounce:

[Midship]

Ah now, that would be telling.. Just kidding, I knew Adam spoke polish so i took an educated guess!

[bref]

I was wondering if alloys from Civic or 1980's Accord and Prelude for example will fit. They are 4x100 with hub 56 and ET 45

Original size are 4.5x13;5.13; 5x14; 5.5X14; 5.5x15 and 6.0x15.

Only Honda Logo seems to have ET35 (and sold with 13' only I think)

Thanks to Copen, 165/50/15 tires are now available in Europe
